1942 Map of Gig Harbor

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Gig Harbor and the surrounding inlets of the Kitsap Peninsula appear here during a period of maritime-dependent settlement, several years after the initial 1937 aerial surveys. The landscape is defined by its intricate shoreline, where communities like Olalla, Lisabeula, and Fragaria dot the banks of Colvos Passage. The presence of numerous named points such as Pt Fosdick and Pt Evans along The Narrows underscores the area's importance for Puget Sound navigation and local ferries.
